* NastyToTheWaitress: A variation. One of the things that cements Michael's opinion of Grotti as a mafioso is that he tells the server at a restaurant exactly where he chooses to sit and how he wants his food prepared.

Added DiffLines:

* NiceJobBreakingItHero: Kevin -- staying in Jim's office because it's comfy -- gets a call from Jim's credit card company investigating possible identity theft (because Jim is using the card while honeymooning in Puerto Rico). Not realizing the cause, Kevin tries to help the investigation by answering the security questions using information Jim left on his desk. This leads the credit card company to conclude that the person with Jim's card in Puerto Rico is an identity thief and the card should be frozen.


Added DiffLines:

* PrisonRape: Discussed between Kevin and [[StraightGay Oscar]].
-->'''Kevin:''' I wouldn't last in jail, Oscar! I'm not like you!
-->'''Oscar:''' What's that supposed to mean?
-->'''Kevin:''' You don't know about jail? You would ''love'' jail.
-->'''Oscar:''' Why would I love jail?
-->'''Kevin:''' Because... ''(long pause)'' ... You would ''love'' it.
